What this file does is give an owner-managed business one place to answer two questions: what should this cost, and what did it actually cost. Functionally it is built in two halves. The first half is a task costing calculator - fifteen task rows in three categories, each combining a labour component (hours by rate), a materials component (units by unit price) and a fixed-cost amount into a single budgeted figure, then comparing it with the amount you record as actual. The second half is a classic budget-versus-actual ledger covering seven income categories and six expense families, including operating costs, payroll, office, entertainment, health and travel. Group subtotals and an overall total are wired in, and a two-line summary at the top of that section reports total income and total expenses with their variances. Every difference cell subtracts budget from actual, so a negative figure always means you came in under plan. The Aqua Blue styling wraps this logic in bright cyan header bars, soft blue panel tints and white content rows, an arrangement that reads well both on screen and in print. Currency cells use the accounting format, keeping decimal points and dollar signs aligned down each column. The workbook is one sheet only, with frozen headings, suppressed gridlines and a print area already scaled to a single page width. It is distributed fully in business English so it can be handed straight to an international team.
